I'm going to though, look up some kobe highlights. I know he is the second coming too, what was that scoring record he set? Most points scored in a game? Yeah, that's just special. Who the fuk is Dante jones and why doesn't he know how to spell his name correctly?

but kobe makes it look sexy as ****. His fade aways are unbelievable.

as for jones, he's on the nuggets, plays dirty because he cant guard kobe

such an annoying player

anyways, this is just 1 example of many

im sure this video has been used many times haermm

this as well

i love him...

Looks like a Lakers win.

Kobe's great, but Lebron has the potential to surpass him. even Michael Jordan has said as much.

Anyway michael> All. 😉

yep can't guard kobe. im getting tired of looking at that guy.

Lakers killed em 😊 119-92

Kobe had 35, 10 assists and 6 boards. Pau had another double double, Lamar was huge again and Ariza scores 17. Luke led the bench in scoring and Shannon played good in the limited minutes in the 4th

Let's go East Champion. haermm

Unfortunately there simply is almost no chance that Lebron is going to develop into a better player than Kobe. Lebron depends ALOT on his strength and speed right now. He just bulldozes his way to the hoop and then elevated and layup/dunks, or outruns his defender and dunks the alley-oop. Im afraid that's not going to stick thought, he's getting older and his athletic ability is only going down. It happens to everyone, and it happened to Kobe, the thing is Kobe also focused on his clutch, his shot, his overall ability to make decisions and take care of the ball. Lebron is going to get worst and worst from now on, he's not going to get any better.

That is ****ing ridiculous.

He's 24. Your making him sound like he is turning 32.

Doesn't anybody remember Jordan in the 80's, early 90's? He was the same. He was known for his high flying dunks and athletic ability. Once he go older, he realized he couldn't keep on doing that so he learned his deadly fadaway shot and post up moves. Same as Kobe.
Lebron will do the same.

You lose your athletic ability near the age of 30. That's when it slowly goes down. So Lebron has about 6-7 more seasons before that happens.

Well practicing underhand halfcourt shots don't exactly help. If I were him I'd be working on my free throws.

LeBron is still amazing though. Just look at what numbers he's put up this series. And look how he closed out game 5. Kobe is still better IMO.

You don't work on free throws during a pregame, but during the offseason.

Howard is having a fantastic game. Lebron seems tired

Lakers/Magic Finals 🙂

I say Lakers in 7

Howard was unstoppable. Had 40 points and 14 rebounds.

Magic advance to the finals to play against the Lakers, as predicted.

I'm ecstatic, man!

Nuggets coach George Karl doesn't think that anyone could have covered Kobe Bryant during stretches of Friday night's Game 6.

"No. 24 had a great five minutes at the end of the (first half) that no one in basketball could have covered him," Karl told the Denver Post.

"He made about four shots in that stretch that I think Jesus would have had trouble covering. And those took the game from a manageable game to 13 (points)."

This put a smile on my face.

I was at the Phillies game so I didn't catch the game, but LETS GO MAGIC! *clap clap clapclapclap*
